I recently had problems with my digital camera setup while I was on vacation. Olympus (maker of the camera) and Lexar (maker of the 256 MB xD card) were of little help. After a little experimenting I figured out that the xD card was causing the problems.
I didn't want to loose any photos, so I started looking on the internet for software that could recover the pictures. I found a lot of them, but only one that was free.

But it wouldn't find my *.mov (Quicktime motion JPEG) This company also has a file recovery tool that found the file and restored it for me.

I was able to recover all of the photos from my vacation, plus any other photos on the card that hadn't been written over.
I then formatted the card with my computer and then the camera would accept it again. It did require another format by the camera though.
I hope this can help anyone else that has had the same problem as I did.
